solace Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 crappy thing is, i'd been testing the 2.1 beta's & release candidates and wanted to do a "test" upgrade first, but they didn't allow that until the last 2 beta's, and i didn't want to risk messing up the forum altogether. i did a backup of the v2.0.4 database just in case tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites

solace Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 the colors are just the stock default 2.1 theme what's the error message? not seeing any here. and seems faster than before here actually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest baseball bobblehead Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 the colors are just the stock default 2.1 theme what's the error message? not seeing any here. and seems faster than before here actually.it is a weird c drive message on the left hand corner of the window, where it usually says "done" it periodically says that there's some sort of DNS error. I'm not having trouble with other sites, just this one. i tried deleting all my cookies , restarting et al but it doesn't seem to make a difference. for example, when i click the post this message button it will take over a minute for it to load the page, and then even longer for the post to show up. That seems really slow to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 huh, doesn't seem like it would be an error w/ the site if you're getting something about your C drive do you have a different browser you can try? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest baseball bobblehead Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 huh, doesn't seem like it would be an error w/ the site if you're getting something about your C drive do you have a different browser you can try?hm it is less slow using netscape, but it is still far slower than it ever was. And the change happened right when the board was down for those few minutes... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caliber66 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 oddly, posting from caliber's computer-- seems not to have the same problems as my two computers.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest baseball bobblehead Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 ok, so why are my two computers acting up (they are both on a wireless network) but only here, but caliber's which is hardwired to the interweb is behaving? we are both using XP and IE, the difference is that i have ebay toolbar on mine (which i've actually disabled on this compy).

Guest baseball bobblehead Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 it seems to be working ok now on at least one computer. It is almost as if the machine had to "get used" to the new look and relearn it. Wacky. Anyway, at least this one is working. Will check the laptop latah. edit: it seems that my ebay toolbar is the culprit...is that possible? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 it is possible, yeah. don't know why on earth it would, but it is possible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Tatlock Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I'd like the interface to be more like Excel, say, so it blends in more at work. Those bloody yellow smilies on the list are a giveaway! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest baseball bobblehead Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 yup. works fine as long as i don't have ebay toolbar up. even the google toolbar seems to slow it down. Just straight IE --fast as lightening. wacky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
